Sergeant PJ Collins hasn''t always been this overweight; mother of two Brid Riordan hasn''t always been an alcoholic; and elegant Evelyn Ross hasn''t always felt that her life was a total waste. So when human remains are discovered on an old farm, suspected to be that of Tommy Burke - a former love of both Brid and Evelyn - the village''s dark past begins to unravel.As the frustrated PJ struggles to solve a genuine case for the first time in his life, he unearths a community''s worth of anger and resentments, secrets and regret.Darkly comic, touching and at times profoundly sad. Graham Norton employs his acerbic wit to breathe life into a host of lovable characters, and explore - with searing honesty - the complexities and contradictions that make us human.
